95 Pontiac Bonneville headlight switch

I have a 95 Pontiac Bonneville. The tail and dash lights went out. A mechanic told me the headlight switch was going bad and it was only a matter of time before the headlights themselves stopped working. I purchased the switch but have NO idea how to begin to install it. Does anyone have any experience with the installation of the headlight switch?????

You cannot replace the switch.

Do you mean "I" cannot replace it and that I need to take my car to an experienced mechanic or it can't be replaced? I'm confused.... I would think that if it couldn't be replaced they would not sell replacement switches.

Thanks, but my car is the pull out type switch mounted on the dash board on the left side of the steering wheel. Any directions on that type???

On my 91 you needed to pull the woodgrain dash trim panel off first. Two srews held the switch in place, then unplug it from the wire harness. Its that simple.

If you have some type of dash trim it more or less pulls off.

Good luck
